A NEW SCHEM L.
One Way of Securing "a Seat in q
Street. Car for II Lady.


New York Mail and Express.
ABroadway car. which left the New \ DIRK
battery about 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
got its first passenger at the City Hall park
in what the conductor called a dude. His
long coat tails protruded from under the
tail S of his short, light-cOlOred top coat;
his hands were enveloped in the yellOwest
of kids; patent leather shoes adorned his
feet, and his head was. in a measure, held
down by an immaculate silk hat. He with
great care deposited his person in the COM
Portable lower corner of the car, and in an
distracted manner looked for his fare.
A search of the first and customary pocket
brought forth nothing. Sudden pain seemed
to disturb the young gentleman's compla-
cent face. He dived into three unsuccess-
full pockets, and then from a fourth
hauled out triumphantly nickel. The
young man was temporarily relieved,
but as the car got up town he seemed
troubled about something again.
By the time the car got to Tenth street
it was completely filled. At Twelfth street
several people got in and crowded the car.
At Thirteenth street several ladies We're
hanging on to the straps. and the dude was
the only man seated. At Fourteenth street
some more people got in, and among them
>
Sweet-faced. feeble old lady. She stood
| up in front of the dude and hung on to the
straps. She was short little lady. and the
position evidently was painful one. But
The dude looked steadily out of the Win
dow. The old gentleman stared at him.
First with disgust, then in contempt, and
finally his emotion was one of anger.
| Suddenly he dived down in his trouser:
| pocket His hand came up full of silver
Carefully selecting four quarters from hi:
pile, he leaned over and touched the young
man. The dude looked up at him.
Young man." said the old gentleman
extending the four quarters. ''I'll give vol
a dollar for your seat"
"Wha-what?n gasped the youth
Everybody sniokered.
IN give you dollar for your seat" re
peated the old gentleman.
The dude looked daZed. He gaZed frs
at the old gentleman's angry face. TheI
his stare wandered over the car. thel
fastened itself upon the four silver quarters
VIVA" he began. Then. in mor
dazed kind of way, he reached out, tool
the quarters, slowly got up, and. stumblin:
off the platform, wandered up Eighteenth
street.
The mild old lady, blushing as red as
she was 16 instead of 60, sat down on til
vacant seat, the passengers smiled. the oil
gent gaZed out of the window, and the ca
bowled merrily along.

NORTHWESTERN CONSPIRACY.

Of all the post bellum literature that is
now flooding the newspapers and magazines
there is none which will attract more at
fention than the series of papers relating to
the Northwest Conspiracy. A shroud of mys-
terry has hing over the matter all these years.
and now that for the first time the secrets
of the conspiracy are brought to light, every
body is interested in knowing what they
are. The fact that Confederate commits
sion had been sent to Canada in 1864 was
we'll known. 1t was also known that
JACOB THOMPSON, of Mississippi, who
had been member Of the BUCHANAN cabi-
net, was at the head of the commission.
1t was furthermore known that one of the
purposes for which the commission had
been organized was to stir up feeling OF
discord among the people of the Northwest
e1n states and TO organize an opposition tC
the further prosecution of the war on the
mart Of the federal government. Although
nothing definite has ever been known con-
corning the operations of the rebel con
spirators there has always been a general
impression that several prominent Demo.
cratic politicians knew more about it than
tneY cdIeu W IldNC pNOlIC. 4lIooiiuSl
as a publication of the history Of the con
spiracy would to more or less extent COM
promise some Democratic politicians, it was
natural that their personal and pelitica
friends should endeavor to keep the matter
concealed from the public eye. But it has
heretofore been all ineXplicable mystery
why Republican politicians should mani
fest an equal interest in supposing the facts
The leaders of one political party are not il
the habit of going out of their way to sup
nose testimony which would damage tn,
leaders of the opposition. Therefore. i
has all along been matter of public sur
prise that the Republican politicians should
make common cause with the leaders of the
opposition to keep the conspiracy docu
ments in the dark. But the most startling
surprise of all is the revelation of the cause
of this Republican desire to have the de
tails of the plot hushed up. 1t turns on
that Secretary STANTON was not onl,
privy to the conspiracy, but was actual.

Thieves annual supper.


Last night over two hundred men and
lads belonging to the rescued criminal
classes sat down to the annual substantial
supper Of meat, plum pudding, ETC., with
hot tea and coffee, given by the St. Giles
Christian mission, in the chapel building,
Little Wild street, Drury lane. The chapel
was prOfusely deco rated with flags and ever
green's. while there were scores of banners.
inscribed with Inspirating notices and
ScripturaI quotations. The lord mayor pre-
sided, and among those present were Mr..
Hatton, superintendent of the mission, and
Mr.. Wheatley, secretary; Howard Vincent.

supplied with pretty bunch of flowers,

TheS0 superintendent, George Hatton,

mission during the past year in aiding re-
leased convicts and other prisoners. He
said of the 20, 525 prisoners released from
the four metropolitan prisons in the year

to that, 5, ISL had been assisted to earn an
honest livelihood in various ways, at an
expense of e3, 600. There had also been
fifty-siX young boys brought up for sentence

I LINCOLN administration. Mr.. STANToN's
sudden flop from the BUCHANAN to the
LINCOLN cabinet was always mystery to
his friends who undertook to explain on the
ground Of his loyal devotion to the union of
the states. But in the light of these new
developments serious question will arise
in the public mind whether the great war
secretary was really actuated by patriotic
motives. If he was loyal to the Union ne
was not loyal to his chief. Anticipating
the overthrow of the LINCOLN administra-
ton at the fall election, instead of mani
Testing disposition to remain Loyalty at
his post and TO go down with his eolorS, he
seems to have been busly preparing means
of escape and to make himself solid with the
opposition before the disaster came MIR.
STATIONS connection with this affair
places his reputation in very colnpromis-
ing attitude. and his friends cannot afford
to lose time in vindicating his memory. In
the mean time further developments, to be
made by the publication of the Northwest-
ern Conspiracy paper. will be awaited with
interest.

CnurchiIl,s Importance.

LONDON, Jan. 3.-The Post. in announce
ing that Mr.. Goschen has agreed to succeed
Lord Randolph Churchill in the leadership
of the house of commons, expresses the lear
that his appointment will lead to the aban-
donment of the Tory democratic policy,
upon which it is necessary to fight the Con-
sentative battle. The Post again urges
upon Lord Salisbury the imperative neces-
sity OF seeking some means to regain Lord
Randolph, even if Mr.. Goschen's acceptance
be final.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt and Nh.
Arnold merely visited Mr. Goschen to-day.
1t is rumored that the latter was sent by
Gladstone to advise Mr.. Goschen not to
leave the Liberal party. The Marquis of
Londonderry, lord lieutenant of Ireland,
offers to sell his Irish estates to the tenants
The terms of sale are not mentioned. Lord
Temple Moore has offered to sell his estate
in DONEGAL at twenty years purchase on a
basis of the present rental.

Trying 10 Steal IA $4,000 Horse.
Newark Sunday Call

Newark Sunday Call.
An abortive attempt TO steal Mr. K. Cad
ugan's stallion Bayonne Prince was made
last week. The stallion is at Flem-
ington, Hunterdon county, where he
has been for the past season.

appears that the thieves entered the stable
about $50 O'Clock and concealed themselves
When the house got quiet they went to
work. They collected all the harness and
blankets they could find and put them in

the rear of the carriage house The har-
ness they put in a bag. and the blankets

who had occasion to go to one
of the uuthouseS near the stable. AS
he passed the latter he noticed that one of
the doors was partly open, and thinking it
strange. he pulled the door wide open and
entered. He had scarcely passed the
threshold when he was felled to the floor
by blow delivered sidewise on his neck,
which stunned him. While lying on the
floor the thieves rihed his pockets taking
SAT IN money, and fled. The floor of the
carriage house had been covered with
blankets to deaden the sound of the horses,
and in few minutes more the thieves
would have been on the road behind horse
with a record of 2:214 and valued at
SIS, 900. With regard to the statement as to
the value of the horse it may be said that
Mr., Cadugan refused fiat offer of $40, 900
for him last month.

A COMPARISON.

Hon. JAMES G. BLAINE has been given
credit for exceeding shrewdness and great
business capacity. A significant COMPARE
son will show that his reputation is well
deserved. Both he and Gen. LOGAN en-
tered public life about the same time.
Neither ever occupied a position pay
ing over $4,000 a year, except when the
former was secretary of state, receiving
IS. 600. But observe the peculiar lack of
commercial sagacity on the part of the late
senator. Living modestly. without even
the approach to the ostentation usually dis
played by people of his prominence, Gen.
LOGAN died poor man, so poor indeed
that even the home he occupied was unpaid
for. What strange disregard of
his opportunities and striking disre-
gard of those business principles,
an observance of which the example of Mr.
BLAINE demonstrates can easily lead to
the founding of large fortune even though
the income does not exceed $4,000 year.
Mr.. BLAINE, on the other hand, has en-
tertained lavishly, has maintained costly
establishment, and by shrewdness all his
own despite his disregard of economy and
ignorance of any profession has been able
to amasS a comfortable competency of
something like 50, 600, 900. And yet so
contrary is the American public, so unap-
| preciative of such notable financial genius
that it will honor Gen. Lo6AN's memory
all the more because, though having equal
opportunities with the man from Maine, he
died poor man because OF his ignorance of
the business methods which have brought
the other wealth. 1t is kind of ignorance
that carries honor with it. and the people
who will vote at the next presidential cleo
ton thoroughly appreciate this fact.

Gladstone FsooeSuI.

LONDON, Jan. Mn. Gladstone, writing
to wish success to the new Scotch news
paper, says it is difficult to withhold de-
gree of provisional sympathy from the gov
eminent. The resignation of Lord
Churchill, he continues is variously at
tributed to various questions which are of
deep interest to the Liberals. The early
and serious dislocation of the ministry from
within will tend to promote misgivings' as
to the solidity of its policy, with regard TO
to which its unity and determination have
been so loudly proclaimed. He concludes
as follows: knowing the firmness of our
position. we can We ch the issue TRANQUILITY
and, as far as oul leading principles will
permit, study every opportunity to restore
Liberal unity''

The typical RostonGirl.

BOSTON heFdlu.
How little the world at large knows Of
the real bona tide Boston girl-that charm
ing combination of pedigree, purse, beauty
and brains which lives on Beacon street or
Commonwealth avenue, and daZZleS the
upper ten by manifold attractions. There
is. to be sure. a certain type familiar to
readers of newspapers and magazines, for
ScribblerS of the time are never weary of
holding up before the public gaze strong
minded. intellectual creature. bespectacled.
Indifferent to the dictates of fashion, and
stepped to the eyebrows in every ology and
ism devised by the mind of man. The
language this damsel uses is more stilted
and fowery than Sir Piercie Shafton's,
more pedantic than DR.. Johnson's. Her
head is always in the clouds, and she has
only an unutterabe scorn for the pretty
trifies that make up life's sum for her less
gifted sisters. She goes on to New York
or Philadelphia occasionally for q complete
intellectual rest, and swoops down upon
Chicago and Cincinnati now and then with
the latest work on zoology in her hand like
Liberty Enlightenng the World. Her pert,
important sayings are retailed and repeated
throughout the country, and she is fast be-
coming famous as the most disagreeablf
specimen of the sex feminine eXtant For
tunately for Boston, however, this so-called
type is of very rare occurrence. BY scour-
ing the by-ways and hedges for long sum-
mer's day one might find perhaps half
dozen young women who are aggressively
Bostonan and answer in every particular
to the generally accepted idea; but they
are never popular. Their own friends and
neghbors laugh and jeer at them as much
! as the scoffers who dwell in other cities
the cities of the Philistines-and, thanks to
the kindly fates who preside over the Hub
and it's destinies, they are the exception
rather than the rule.

THE MATTER OF QUARANTINE

THE MATTER OF QUARANTINE.
The communication which the commits
sioner of agriculture addresses to the gov
ernor of Illinois, upon the subject OF quar-
antning cattle afflicted with pleuro-pneu-
mona and oJher contagious diseases, will
be warmly indorsed by every farmer and
cattle owner in Minnesota. The Illinois
commissioners have more than once shown
either a disregard or ignorance of their
duties, and the suggestion of Commissioner
COLEMAN that their duties be clearly de-
fined is timely. The instance cited, in
which cattle were placed in stables recently
occupied by infected stock, is a noteworthy
example of the needless way in which
The commissioners have acted. There
has been in Illinois an absence OF
proper official inspection and direc-
ton of the measures necessary to
remove the faint Of disease and a general
Iooseness in the enforcement of other quar-
antine regulations. Minnesota is vitality
interested in the preservation of the quaran-
tine whenever it may be necessary. Her
cattle interests is one of her greatest sour
ces of wealth and she cannot afford to
have it endangered by the carelessness OF
slnthful or Incompetent officials. If Mr..
COLEMAN succeeds in bringing about a
better system of quarantine inspection and
supervision he will gain friend in every
stock grower, East or West.
